Like "all text must be at least 9pt Times New Roman" and "hexes on dungeon map must be at least one-quarter inch wide for legibility". I think my use of 8pt font is going to come back and bite me.
I made my first one before the contest was even announced. I just made a 4x6" adventure, and the map took up a whole side, and the text was on the other side, squeezed in with a barely legible 5pt font. When the contest was announced, I made a new map and based it on the previous adventure, the only one I ever wrote! I fit it all one one side like a real postcard.
